OIL. COOK-STOVE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 520,407,dated May 29,1894.

Application fil March 6, 1894:- Serial No. 502,543. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES H. BOECK, a citizen of the United States,residing at J ackson, in the county of Jackson and State of Michigan,have invented certain new and use ful Improvements in Oil Cook-Stoves,of which the following is a specification, reference being had thereinto the accompanying draw- 1ngs.

This invention refers more specifically to that type of oil cook stovein which the stove is supported in astand.

My invention particularly refers to the means for holding the partsinposition in the stand, all as more fully hereinafter described.

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved oilstove. Fig. 2 is a vertical, central section thereof, and Fig. 3 is adetached perspective view of the chimney. Figs. 4 and 5 are details ofthe parts forming the top of the chimney. Fig. 6 is a section on line a;w in Fig. 2. Fig. 7 is a detached side elevation of the burner and itstank.

A is a table and B are standards forming together the supporting frameof the stove, all arranged in a known manner, except as hereinafterdescribed.

C is the burner.

D is the oil tube of the burner containing the wick E and provided withsuitable wick raising and lowering devices, not shown.

E is a skirt secured in any suitable manner to the lower end of the oiltube. It is open at its lower end and reaches down within a littledistance of a shelf F secured in the lower part of the supporting frame.

G is a cross bar secured at the ends to the standards and formed with arounded portion H adapted to encircle one half of the skirt which latteris clamped to the part G by a clamping bar I encircling the other halfof the skirt.

K is an oil tank which is placed in rear of the burner and communicateswith the oil tube through the connection L. This tank is supported inposition by forming in the end supporting standards half circularbearing M in which the ends of the tank are loosely supported.

The chimney is detachable from the burner and is constructed andarranged in the following ma-nner: The body is made of a sheet notches Rin their upper ends.

metal cylinder N, provided with the usual door N. O is a cast ironcollar forming the lower end of the chimney and adapted to fit onto thecap P of the burner, the latterbeing preferably provided with an annularshoulder P to form a close joint with the collar 0. In the upper portionof the body of the chimney is secured a collar Q shown in detached viewin Fig. 4. This collar is provided on its top with projecting lugs Rformed with These notches engage with a depending flange S formed on theunder side of a grate plate T which is adapted to form the support ofthe culinary vessel. This support for the culinary vessel is firmlysecured to the chimney by means of bolts U which pass through thecollars of the chimney as shown, and thus unite all the parts of thechimney together.

The table A is provided with an aperture V bordered by a depressed rimV, and the support of the culinary vessel is provided with an outer rimW and a depending flange W, all so arranged that the support isremovably held in position in the aperture of the table in the manner ofan ordinary stove lid.

By means of the construction described it will be seen that the supportfor the culinary vessel forms the means of removably holding the chimneyin position upon the burner, and thus it may be readily cleaned fromadhering soot when desired, while free access is afforded to the burner.The support for the culinary vessel together with the collar Q and thelugs R forms an open frame which affords easy distribution and escape ofthe gases of combustion beneath the cooking vessel. It will further beseen that the means of securing the burner and tank in position afi'ordssufficient adj ustability for raising and lowering the burner to make itfit closely against the collar 0 of the chimney and by removing thescrews 01, which hold the clamping bar I in place, the tank and burnermay readily be removed from the frame if desired. The skirt E forms themeans for clamping the burner firmly in place without danger of marringor defacing any part of the burner itself, and in connection with theshelf F, which it closely approaches, it produces a more regular admission of air to the burner, thereby preventing IOC the smoking orflickering of the flame by air drafts.

What I claim as my invention is- 1. In an oil stove, the combinationwith the table and supporting standards, of a burner and tank supportedin position below the table, a chimney provided at its upper end with anopen frame work forming a support for the culinary vessel, and anaperture in the table adapted to receive and hold said support andthereby form the means of removablyholding the chimney in position uponthe burner, substantially as described.

2. In an oil stove, the combination with the table and its supportingstandards,of a burner and its tank removably supported in position bythe standards below thetable, independently of the chimney, a chimneyprovided'at its lower end with a collar adapted to fit over the cap ofthe burner and its upper end with a support for the culinary vessel, anda table having an aperture adapted to removably hold said support andthereby form the means of removably supporting the chimney in positionupon the burner, substantially as described.

3. In an oil stove, the combination with the table and its supportingstandards, of a chimney provided at its upper end with an open Workframe forming a support for the culinary vessel, and by means of whichthe chimney is removably suspended from the table, of a burner providedWith a depending skirt, a supporting bar provided with means forclamping the skirt in position, atank located in rear of and united withthe burner, and bearings formed in the supporting standards to removablyhold the tank in position, substantially as described.

t. In an oil stove, the combination with the table and supportingstandards, of a burner removably supported in position below the tableindependent of said chimney, a chamber N provided with the collars O andQ, the lugs R on the collar Q provided with notches R, the support T ofthe culinary vessel rovided with a depending flanges and supporting rimW and a table provided with the aperture V, and supporting ri'm V, allarranged and combined to operate substantially as described.

5. In an oil burner, the combination witha table and its supportingstandards, of a chimney provided at its upper end with asupport for theculinary vessel by means of which the chimney is removably suspendedfrom the table, of a burner and its tank removably supported from thestandards below the table the depending skirt E from the burner, and a.

shelf F supported in proximity to the skirt by the standards of thetable, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
